The Field & Stream® Outpost XL 17' Ladder Stand is designed to be a comfortable and durable choice for hunters. The D-Tube construction reduces flexing and make this stand more rigid than stands made with standard tubing. The Padded shooting rail and armrests along with the ergo-mesh seat make it possible to be comfortable in the Outpost XL Ladder Stand all day. The polyethylene coating on the quick clips minimize noise.
